    Doesn’t quite make sense, seeing as how water and oils react in a physical sense.

    That, and the natural internal body temperature.

    Others would call me a total brown nose in that situation. I know how to conduct damage control when warranted.

    Eagleville, MO could have had me call a crane out and cost me 2 days in a situation a couple of months back.

    Simple willingness to comply/appease and a sprinkle of charm kept me from a really bad day there.

    I think the officer was startled when I heartily shook his hand after giving me a $280 weight violation.

    Did this at a seafood buffet at a fancy restaurant. Girl ask is everything ok? Crab leg in mouth I tell her it is the best I ever had, even a pesky little shell fish allergy wasn't gonna stop me. Bad thing is half the table I was at believed it too. Wife had to inform everyone that I not right and a little sick, but not from sea food. Poor girl her face was priceless!

    My wife bought me one of those GPS things number of years ago. A lot of my coworkers at EZ spent many miles trying to get back to the wrong turn if I was napping lol. I use it for the MPH feature it has now, my speedo is off on truck so it helps when cruising past the bears lol.

    I will ask a waitress her name. I will call her by name. Not “darling, baby, sugar, sweetheart,...etc”.

    My waitress signed the back of my bill for the cashier. I am interested in calligraphy and asked about it. Whenever I see beautiful writing, I ask about the background. The waitress originally cold got shy when I asked about how she came to have such beautiful writing. She just wanted better writing and she practiced.

    That guy. The fat liar that’s done everything and seen it all. He’s going to either try to have a big pickle contest or push you buttons. He doesn’t need to know about my privates and I have removed all of my buttons. Never give an idiot an audience.

    Guy at the flying j I was at the other day. One of those talks when they shouldn't. Guy bums a shower then as someone (guessing the guy he bummed) goes to the shower he tries talking to him. Dude doesnt want to talk but the bum gets irate at being ignored and is a hollerin and what not. Some peoples children.

    Ended up getting pretty good acquainted with one of the shippers in California at a produce warehouse. I could show up an hour late or 4 hours early didnt matter hed throw me to the front of the line. I was always cool with him and kept my paperwork and numbers I needed ready. He never had to ask me for anything. Might be a little upsetting to some of those drivers but it's not hard to get on someone's good side.


    Gonna play around with mine and see if I can get any better swrs. And dont most truck stops have swr meters in them?

    I'm shy in person. Dont really know why just when I'm on cb or cell phone doesnt matter. In person unless I know you in person super quiet.
